1. All of the teachings show you a way to connect with something outside of this daily world. For all of these major religions, something must be given up or followed in order to reach something greater. They also are all a way to improving who you are whether you do it in a community or you seek God all on your own. Jews see improvement through the Old Testament laws of the community. Christians find it in a pure heart. Islam sees it in obeying practices and Buddhists find it in nirvana.

Proverbs from Ki-en-gir (Sumer), c. 2000 BCE ? 1. Whoever has walked with truth generates life. 2. Do not cut off the neck of that which has had its neck cut off. 3. That which is given in submission becomes a medium of defiance. 4. The destruction is from his own personal god; he knows no savior. 5. Wealth is hard to come by, but poverty is always at hand. 6. He acquires many things, he must keep close watch over them. 7. A boat bent on honest pursuits sailed downstream with the wind; Utu has sought out honest ports for it. 8. He who drinks too much beer must drink water. 9. He who eats too much will not be able to sleep. 10. Since my wife is at the outdoor shrine, and furthermore since my mother is at the river, I shall die of hunger, he says.
